I installed the 15.4 update. After my Mac restarted the color I had for the desktop went away. Now my desktop background is white. I can go to wallpaper and select pre-created colors. When I click on the button with a plus sign in colors the control panel pops up a color select dialog. I can create a color I like but I can't make it the desk top color. How can I do this?

Here 😆 worked fine 20+ years until 15.4. Its 2025 with a $10k Mac Silicon and now surprise. Genius
I clicked on the bell icon to unsubscribe from this thread. But I keep getting notified of responses, junk about kindergarten and cookies that has nothing to do with the subject. I guess a moderator is deleting them, because I don't see them when I come here.
How do I stop this spam?
There's also a known forum bug that still needs to be fixed.
When you click on the solid blue bell at the top of a topic, it changes to an outline. That's all you're supposed to have to do in order to stop getting notifications about any changes to that topic.
But, the bug is, you need to refresh the page. If the bell shows up as solid blue, you need to click it again. Do another refresh of the page. Still reappearing as solid? Keep clicking the bell and refreshing until it stays as an outline. Then you will stop getting notifications for that topic.
Looking at the user discussions this has been FUBAR since 15.1. Seriously Apple?
Having the exact same issue. Ridiculous. I need the tint I had for eye comfort. Have had it for years.
This became a bigger problem with 15.4 because upgrading caused your Mac to forget your old color. Things went from bad to worse.
Of course I have. How does being rude and patronizing contribute to the discussion?
It seems that way.
I seem to recall years ago there wasn't a way to use a custom color. Making a small, flat tint image in the color I wanted was the only way to get one.
I'm not all that fussy. Black or the darker grey works for me. Of course normally I use a wallpaper.
Makes sense.
Years ago I bought a datacolor SpiderX Pro to calibrate screens. I forget when I stopped using it.
Thanks! This is easy solution. BB

also having this issue, i can't believe this is somehow broken after years and years of it working fine. how did this ship?
It shipped that way because, and you may find this hard to believe, humans make mistakes.
Do you think Apple fixed it on purpose, like they broke it on purpose? lol
